gromittigger Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 what a fantastic choice of machine - the most accurate spreader on the market. The only reason they have lost there popularity in the east is they spread upto 12m whereas most people do 24m in the arable sector. Well over a million of these machines have ben sold in the past - theres nothing easier to use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james f Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 and what sort of operator are you if you can do that It only takes one half ton bag to go a little bit astray on a windy day, it can be surprisingly difficult to put one where you want it when its swinging around the place Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
